Jan 8 (Reuters) – Border patrol agents were conducting a vehicle stop Tuesday in Portland, Oregon when the driver “weaponized” the vehicle before an officer “fired a defensive shot,” the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday on X.
DHS said the passenger of the vehicle was the target of the stop.
